Nuno,
Römer's study recommends that the fry be raised at 26ºC (79ºF) for
a 50/50 ratio. This is discussed in his book.
From what I understand, Römer's 2nd volume will be about all of the
new species not listed in his 1st volume. Therefore if you want all
of the apistos, you will need both volumes. If true, this is much
better than the revised editions of Linke & Stack's book. Their new
editions only have 4 or 5 new species. The rest of the book is the
same as the old book. I keep hearing that Römer's Volume 2 will be
out sometime later this year. Based on how long it took the
original to arrive, I will not be holding my breath. Does anyone
out there know any more details?

Thanks. I guess 25 C can be considered "normal" and read somewhere
it will also be quite on spot to obtain a 50/50 sex ratio.
Isn't the Romer's Atlas coming out as a 2nd edition with loads of
updated information. I read that in a post a couple of months ago.
I would rather wait and buy the second ed, then.
By the way Mike & Diane, the male that spawned was the very same
male you help me with that was a serious flagelades case a few
months ago. The drug worked perfectly. Thanks a lot!!!

3 days to hatch & an additional 4 days to become freeswimming at
normal aquarium temperatures. Seems like someone needs a good book
on dwarf cichlids. I highly recommend Römer's "Cichlid Atlas"
published by Mergus.

Hi all,
once again I have a female aga caring for some eggs - hope this
time it works better than before. Is there a good reference for
expected hatching times for apistos in general? Couldnt find
anything in the krib... :-(
I would be interested in knowing how many days it will take for
the fry to be born and, afterwards, how long will it take for
them to start free swimming (to get the bbs fresh and ready on
time).
The temp is 25 C.
Thanks in advance
Nuno
